While the investment in the guide dog is positively and deservedly noted,
the same emphasis must be given to the white cane. This will ensure that; all blind
people in our country have a white cane to always be assured that they can enjoy
independent access and full dignity as much as possible.
VNVN believes that with this measure, when in the World 7% of the blind have a
white cane, Malta and its blind associations will be of advice to the world around us to
further strengthen the culture of independent life beyond the light in our country.
